Function |
TGF alpha is a mitogenic polypeptide that is able to bind to the EGF receptor/EGFR and to act synergistically with TGF beta to promote anchorage-independent cell proliferation in soft agar. |
Tissue Specificity |
Isoform 1, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in keratinocytes and tumor-derived cell lines. |
Sub-cellular localization |
Transforming growth factor alpha: Secreted, extracellular space. |
